As readers of Burlesque Baby are well aware, This is Burlesque is New York City’s hottest running burlesque revue. With over one year of sold out performances, an A-List cast, packed houses, rave reviews and celebrity fans, one might argue there are often more stars at Corio’s This is Burlesque than in the night sky. This stellar show re-invents and revamps itself once again with an all new, high concept, environmental retro-glam revue!
Vivacious vixen, Angie Pontani stars in the production, which features her in multiple sexy saucy and splashily costumed performances, including her award winning and show stopping strip tease which garnered her the title of “The Reigning Queen of Burlesque, Miss Exotic World 2008” in Las Vegas earlier this year.
Joining Angie is a popular cast of NYC’s best dancers, singers and specialty acts, including her renowned troupe the world famous Pontani sisters, the tap dancing sensation Helen Pontani, the fastest tassel twirler from east to west, Peekaboo Pointe, the candy coated cutie Lil' Miss Lixx, Charm City’s dynamic acrobatic duo, Trixie Little and the Evil Hate Monkey, the comedic and sexy styling’s of Little Brooklyn, plus the gravity defying hula hoop sensation Miss Saturn.

"THIS IS BURLESQUE" offers something for everyone, gorgeous girls, side splitting comedy, high flying acrobatics, quite simply, prepare to be bedazzled!

Mix and mingle with showgirls, chorines and chorus cuties as you lounge with the performers. It's full on nightlife salvation!
